Patent EP-1286890-A2 (EP)
Inventor: MEAD RUSSELL C JR
IPC: B65H75/44
Filed: 2001-03-15
Abstract: A reel (20) comprises a drum assembly (22) enclosed within a shell comprising upper and lower shell portions (24, 26). The drum assembly (22) is secured to the lower shell portion (26). The drum assembly (22) comprises a motor-driven rotating drum (36) secured between two discs (38, 40), and a frame subassembly (23). The drum (36) is adapted to receive linear material (150) spooled thereon. An outer surface of one of the discs has a spiral groove (88), with a first end (90) near the center of the disc and a second end (92) near an outer edge. The second end (92) is tapered to lesser depth. The frame subassembly (23) includes a track assembly (54) facing the discs with the spiral groove (88) and a translating plate (70) adapted to translate horizontally within the track assembly. As the drum and discs rotate, horizontal pins (76, 78) of the plate (70) alternatingly engage the spiral groove (88), causing the translating plate to translate linearly within the track assembly. The translating plate is connected to and causes the upper shell portion to reciprocatingly rotate about a vertical axis with respect to the lower shell portion and drum assembly. A guide aperture (128) is provided in the upper shell portion, through which linear material (150) is drawn onto the rotating drum (36). Advantageously, the aperture translates through an arc in front of the drum (36), so that the linear material (150) is distributed across the drum surface as it is wound. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>

Filed: 2001-04-02
Abstract: L'invention concerne un adaptateur secondaire pour recevoir un signal d'alimentation à c.c. et émettre un signal d'alimentation de sortie à destination d'un adaptateur d'alimentation à c.a. L'adaptateur d'alimentation à c.a. peut émettre un signal d'alimentation à c.c. pour répondre aux exigences en matière d'alimentation électrique d'un appareil électronique. Comme l'adaptateur d'alimentation à c.a. est conçu pour recevoir un signal d'alimentation d'entrée depuis une source d'alimentation à c.a., l'adaptateur secondaire convertit une source d'alimentation à c.c. pour émettre un signal d'alimentation d'entrée qui est suffisant pour alimenter l'adaptateur d'alimentation à c.a. L'adaptateur secondaire permet à l'adaptateur d'alimentation à c.a. d'alimenter un appareil électronique à partir d'une source d'alimentation soit à c.a. soit à c.c.

Inventor: HOLDING ANDREW
IPC: G07C9/00
Filed: 2001-06-29
Abstract: Secure Home Delivery SystemA system for providing secure delivery or collection of goods too large to be delivered through traditional apertures such as the letterbox, to a location, such as a home, where the goods have previously been remotely ordered using remote means such as the internet or telephone. Access to a secure location, for example, a dedicated receptacle, garage or shed, is achieved by presentation of an access code by the delivery personnel, the origin of which is linked to the order of the goods. The access code may be computed using time-based algorithms that are replicated by the lock at the delivery location, unlocking occurring when the access codes coincide. The lock can provide access to a key safe, which in turns holds keys to a secure location. The system could equally be used for the collection of goods and for providing access to utility meters.

Abstract: Dans le dispositif et le procédé de l'invention visant à éjecter un additif pour réduire considérablement la résistance de frottement d'un premier fluide mobile par rapport à une paroi, on traite une matière réduisant la résistance au frottement en faisant s'écouler un deuxième fluide (5) qui contient cette matière sous forme de solide, de liquide ou de gaz dispersé, à travers une buse (13). On fait ensuite passer le deuxième fluide par une chambre (4) tourbillonnaire avant de l'éjecter dans le premier fluide par une ouverture qui comprend une surface (8) de Coanda sur une partie de celle-ci. Des techniques supplémentaires également décrites permettent d'accroître l'efficacité et le rendement d'éjection d'une matière réduisant la résistance au frottement dans un fluide mobile par rapport à une paroi, et d'obtenir ainsi de multiples couches sans interruption indésirable de la couche limite, et sans provoquer de diffusion rapide d'additifs dans la couche limite comme c'est le cas dans les techniques actuelles d'éjection.

Abstract: A data resource specific to a pipe coupling centrally positioned within the coupling, intermediate the coupling ends. Multiple couplings are employed to connect together a string of well pipe. The data resource is adapted to be deployed at the coupling center in the space formed between the abutting ends of pipe made up into the coupling. The data resource provides information regarding the physical characteristics and locations of the coupling, the attached string pipe or the environment within which the coupling is disposed. The data resource may be a read-only component or it may be a readable and writeable component. The resource communicates with an instrument movable through the pipe and coupling. The data resource may be removably positioned at the center of the coupling or it may be permanently cemented in place. The data resource may take on the form of an annular ring with a crushable structure and suitable recesses for holding a data resource module. A circular communication antenna may be carried in the ring. A preferred form of the data resource is an externally threaded Teflon(R) ring equipped with axially extending resilient fingers. The resilient fingers are deformable upon engagement with the rotating ends of the pipe sections so that advancing the pipe sections beyond their optimum depth into the coupling deforms the fingers without rotating and thus displacing the ring. The body of the ring remains in the gap between the pipe and where it is protected from crushing.

Abstract: A method and system for diagnosing pathology, such as carcinoma, in a biological sample identifies presence of pathology based on the existence of an infrared markers in the extracellular material, rather than cells, in the biological sample. In the case of breast cancer diagnosis, an effective marker is a baseline slope of a 1280 cm-1 band in the infrared spectra of connective tissue, with normal biopsy samples exhibiting a positive slope and cancerous samples showing a relatively flat baseline. Infrared spectroscopy, both microscopic and macroscopic, may be used to identify a sample region containing extracellular material and to collect infrared absorbance data, from which the existence of the pathology marker is determined.
